Despite being dropped before the climb of the Col de Toses, it was Alex Baudin (EF Education-EasyPost) going over the first Category 1 climb of this Tour de France. By being the first over the first big climb he moves into the virtual lead for the Polka Dot Jersey. By the end the stage, he turned the virtual jersey in to the actual Maillot a Pois. He was followed over the top by Nicolas Prodhomme (Decathlon-CMA CGM) and the guy who started the climb first, Raul Garcia Pierna (Movistar). The climb (and most of the first three stages of the Tour) were lined by fans flying the Catalonian flag. In just 24 kilometers, the Tour will return to its native soil.
This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available through my website at greigleach.com or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of the post to purchase the painting above. Since it is an original work of art, it is a first come first served reality. The work sells for $99 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
